What temprature does Psilocybin degrade?

I've read the 'melting point' on Erowid, but a compound can degrade before it melts.
Whats the hottest temprature Psilcybin can get to, before it starts to degrade at all?
Try to determine optimal drying temprature.
Obviously, based upon peoples data here, 95F-120F seems to be a safe range, while some people go up to 165F for 24 hours.
So, has anybody done some calulations? I know its hard to measure potency loss, because each mushroom has variable potency, and we cant eat a mushroom fresh and the same mushroom dried to report potency difference.

I think it's 300f+ for psilocybin to degrade, not 100% sure but it can't be too far off. When we make tea with 212f(100c) water the potency is never affected in my opinion, it hits faster but its usually as strong as you'd expect it to be.

Psilocybin = Thermal stability temperature is 174* F

Everyone but noobs dries their shrooms at at least 160F And you can boil shrooms at 212F for 15 minutes and make very strong tea Cronicr pressure cooked shrooms at 250F 15psi for I believe at least 30m and they were just as good as always. You can put them on a pizza in a 450F oven for 10m and they still work the same. You can deep fry magic mushrooms too and they still work.
Good luck destroying the magic with heat.

I'd run a dehydrator at 200 if it went that high.
